Dantonio really f'ed Sparty over by announcing his departure so late in the cycle. After Fickell and Narduzzi said 'no', they had little leverage. Tucker rebuffed their initial overture, but probably extracted one hell of a lot more when they came back to him.
MSU is still a good job and I hope Tucker can turn it around.
